Logan Paul’s left elbow is going to have a very different look the next time he steps into the squared circle.
The WWE Superstar revealed on Wednesday that he recently had surgery to repair a torn triceps — and the scar he got from going under the knife was gnarly.
In a series of Instagram photos, Paul showed his new, sutured wound runs all the way from his forearm to the top of his elbow. But despite the gruesome scene, Paul was somehow still in good spirits about it all.
“Tore my tricep, got surgery while wide awake, told doc I wanna feel it all,” he joked in a caption on the pictures. “Still the Tag Team champ just FYI. They’re telling me 6 month recovery but I don’t believe them, I’ll be back in a couple weeks with some @drinkprime shake.”
Paul sustained the injury on Saturday night, when he and Austin Theory were taking on Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford with the WWE World Tag Team Championship on the line.
Paul landed awkwardly on his arm after Dawkins hurled his body into him. He and Theory, though, were able to nonetheless come away with the win.
Paul will now be out of action for around half a year. It’s expected Bron Breakker will fill in with Theory as Paul recovers.
“Keep that title warm for me @wwe @austin_theory @paulheyman @bronbreakkerwwe,” Paul said.
